The Church:
Services were first
held in the Northern Rugby Club pavilion in 1944. A
Nissen hut was acquired and adapted for use as the first
church, being dedicated on 4 May 1946. The present
church, originally a multi-purpose building with a stage
at the west end and a screen to close the choir during
the week was completed ten years later. The architect
was a church member, Mr. Fred Herron. When St. Aidan's
community centre was built the stage area was altered
for use as a
baptistry
before the church was consecrated in 1963.
